hmmm... a fringe guy on the twins is picked up by the Red Sox and hits 30+ HRs the next 2 years, and Fenway park as NOTHING to do with it?

 

Ortiz was never a fringe guy. He's a fringe guy to whoever has enough of a lack of baseball knowledge to understand how, and why, he put up "only" better than league average numbers before his prime. Ortiz, overwhelmingly helped by Fenway, putting up an OPS of .984 there in 2004. On the road, not feeling the Fenway effect that made him in the hitter he is, put up a putrid OPS of .982.

 

So, might I ask, is it the Fenway EffectTM that makes him hit the crap out of the ball as a member of the Red Sox in Yankee Stadium, or is because he absolutely OWNS the Yankees? Sucks to be owned by Fringe Guys, doesn't it?

Don't forget the HUGE influence Papa Jack has had on Ortiz.

[Yanksin2010]

Manny and Ortiz don't get helped out by fenway? Thats the biggest ******** Ive ever, well not ever, but pretty big ********.

[BoSox Rule]

You're right.

 

Manny f***ing sucks and can't hit anywhere else. He never had any remote success before he came to Fenway.

 

Ortiz isn't in the prime of his career and healthier than he's ever been.

[BoSox Rule]

I'm not here to argue with some **** Yankee fan.

It will suck for him to be owned by Randy Johnson next year

It's too bad that almost every person is like you two in NY.

eh, you know how it really is. Not many of those type of people are in either region, it's just when an argument gets heated, we tend to criticize each other in things other than baseball
